When to Follow Dual Tire Maximum Load on Trailer Tire
Question:
In which case we need to consider dual tyre load? 1. 2 Tyres are placed on each side of the axle, So total 4 wheels on same axle. 2. 1 tyre placed on each side of the axle, So 2 tyres on one axle, but 2 Nos of axle i.e tandem axle. In which case i should consider dual load for tyre?

It sounds like you are asking when exactly you need to adhere to the dual tire maximum load (3,520 pounds at 110 psi) and the single tire load (3,960 pounds at 110 psi) with the Kenda Karrier ST235/85R16 Radial Trailer Tire # AM10501.
"Dual tire" refers to having two tires on each side of a single axle (your scenario number 1). This is when you will need to follow the 3,520 pound maximum load. Your scenario number 2 of a tandem axle setup would call for the single tire load capacity of 3,960 pounds since there is only 1 tire on each side of the axle.
